Andhra Pradesh - Hyderabad   

Kidnapper on prowl

Who is this `mystery woman' who seems to have honed the skill of walking away with children? In some instances, the confidence trickster even manages to win over gullible parents and walk away with a child, right in front of their eyes!

The reports on kidnap of four children in six weeks seems to be a matter of concern, for not only parents but also the law and order machinery. The last victim was a six-month-old child who was taken away in a clean operation by her from Vadderabasthi. The mother who initially was clearly floored by the kidnapper's sweet talk was left flabbergasted when realisation dawned moments later.
